Thanks to your donation, we were able to create individualized, hands-on instructional books that are already making a tremendous difference in the lives of our special education students.\r\n\r\nThese interactive books, built with durable cardstock, lamination sheets, and binding supplies, have become a daily part of our classroom learning. With the added touch of Velcro and creativity, each book has been tailored to meet the unique learning goals of every student. Whether working on reading, math, communication, or life skills, students now have engaging tools that they can touch, move, and interact with—making learning not only more accessible but also more exciting.\r\n\r\nBecause of these resources, I've been able to provide targeted instruction in a way that traditional materials simply couldn't offer. The books allow for repetition, independence, and adaptability as students grow and progress. They're especially helpful for building confidence and participation, and I've seen students light up when they complete a page on their own or use a book to communicate a need or idea.\r\n\r\nThis project has truly elevated our classroom. The flexibility and durability of these materials mean they will continue to support learners year after year.\r\n\r\nThank you, Maxwell/Hanrahan Foundation and anonymous donors, for believing in the power of personalized, hands-on learning. Your kindness and commitment have created real, lasting change—and we couldn't be more grateful!\r\n\r\nWith heartfelt appreciation,","fullyFundedDate":1736767154607,"projectUrl":"project/personalize-goal-books/8781593/","projectTitle":"Personalize Goal Books","teacherDisplayName":"Mrs. Ausema","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://storage.donorschoose.net/dc_prod/images/teacher/profile/orig/tp7932483_orig.jpg?width=272&height=272&fit=bounds&auto=webp&t=1742915745256","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/7932483"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_36863","usesDonorsChoose":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":455,"numTeachers":29,"percentFrplEligible":95,"percentAsian":1,"percentBlack":0,"percentWhite":19,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":73,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","gradesServed":"1 - 5","studentTeacherRatio":"15.7:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":true,"titleOne":true,"metroType":"URBAN","ncesMetroType":"CITY_SMALL"},"inStateSupporters":76.7,"schoolId":36863,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Roosevelt Elementary School on @DonorsChoose:","schoolName":"Roosevelt Elementary School","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/washington/yakima-school-district-7/roosevelt-elementary-school/36863"}
